I understand the change was made to hide past ratings for guys, but I want to still see past ratings for retired players. I think not being able to see that diminishes the "coolness" of the Hall of Fame and reminiscing about World history. I want to be able to link a retired player in World Chat, and say "Yeah remember that magical Season 21 he had?" and everybody can click the link, look at his stats, and see his ratings.

If you look where it says 'Batting and pitching ratings' if you go over as far to the right as you can, click 'show more' and it will show the players lifetime ratings.
